About Us
In our state’s history, Louisiana has hosted over 2,500 film and TV series productions. This exposure serves as lasting promotion for our state, bolstering tourism and benefitting various industries. According to the latest report from the Lt. Governor’s office, the film industry supports up to $2.5 billion in annual tourism revenue. In addition, the industry delivered nearly $2 billion in sales to Louisiana businesses, nearly $1 billion in earnings for residents, and supported close to 10,000 jobs over the past two years.
We are poised for greatness as a state in the entertainment industry. Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, Disney, HBO Max, Paramount, and others are household names and are increasingly expanding their content offerings. These same names have all started to shoot productions here and are looking to increase their commitment to content over the coming years.
